These are: Tne affference between valuation of Prime CRC land Secondary CRC is taken at 25% by Customs Department. This regime supports commercial Importers and is stacked against local ‘manufacturers, Allthe three manufacturers of CRC have quoted various international examples and hhave requested Customs Department t set the discount of Secondary CRC at 4.5% of Prime CRC price. This is inline with what ell the three local and Intemational CRC producers offer on thelr respective Secondary CRC, 2.Uptil recently, Pakistan ld not have the local CCRC capaetty 9 meet demand of CRC users In Paiistan, However, withthe startup of state ofthe ar CRC Complex of Alsha Steel, the three local producers can meet the local GRC demand However, as CRC was not locally avaliable In the past therefore, certain users of CRC were ghven concessionary Import tar under SRO 565.
